hue became noticeable on the lappels Of
coats and the bosoms of dresses, and be-
fore noon every Hibernian and many who
were not Hibernians were displaying bows
and knots OF green among their decora-
tiOns OF dress. ~ f'.s,,. IL .,.s
Among the most profusely decorated
Irishmen In the city was Louis Peterson,
who appeared with q green flag In his hat
early In the morning, and John Davidson

Our town has been very free from llwless-

but whoever committed tho act seemed to
think It safest to leave Uncle Sam severely
alone, for that department was not meddled
With Suspicion attached to two young
men perhaps boys would designate them

town for several months and the other
lately from Miles City. They disappeared
the same night and were arrested the next
day at Mandan and returned here. They
had a hearing before Justice Wilson on
Monday upon complaint charging bur-
glary in the third degree.
One Of them waived examination and
admitted his guilt, and the one lately from
Montana, after the hearing of testimony,
was committed to Jail to await the action
of the grand jury.
Mr.. Wilson has arrived from Chicago,
preparatory to establishing the Stark
County Herald and Stockmen's journal at
Gladstone. He SENS to be pleased with the
prospect lying before him. Editor Tuttle
has announced through his columns that

Tne Twentieth Legislature.


The POSTS judgment of the Twentieth
Legislature is that, barring few unQme-
ly Incidents, its record is fairly credit
able Ons. as a matter Of fact the results
of the session are far more vaIusble, more
conservative and sensible than most OBJ
servers expected them to be when sizing
up the body at the beginning. It is true
that some exceedingly important matters
were either defeated or left unattended
| to, but, on the other hand, myCl valuable
legislation was effected. In addition TO
the great number of local and private
bills enacted, some measures of general
public interest were passed into laws.
There were eleven new counties created,
the organization OF which will add
materially to the wealth and pro
gress of the state; good and sensible
land law WAS enaCted and the State Land
Board abolished; the Commissioners Of
Appeals, board for the relief Of the Su-
preme court, was revived; the civil and
penal statutes have been changed in sew
eral instances, notably Is to carrying
arms, and where iajury to railroad prop
erty is provided Tor; dealing i'll futures
was prohibited; election laws were
changed; the sale Of liquor was regulated;
COnstitut iOnal amendments as to prohibit
ton ard changes 10 the Judiciary system
were submitted 10 the people; the law as
to the effect of wills probateG in other
states was changed; law allowing any
city or town to compromise existing in
debtedness was passed; house of cor
reCtion was provided for; the public
school law was adVIntageOusly amended.
Among the measures of imDOrt4nce which
were considered, kus not passed, may be
mentioned the regulation Of pharmacy, the
geological bill, the amendment to the
libel law, the Pecos irrigation bill, the
university bill, the text book for the pub
lie schools, several railroad bills, an ap-
preparation for furnishing the new capitol,
the amendment for exempting manufac-
lures from taxation and some others not
now recalled. The appropriations for
the support of the government and the
educational and humane institutions are
fairly liberal, and, upon the whole, there
is no just cause fer complaint. AS rule,
and the exceptions 10 it are Infrequent,
The press and people are disposed to re-
gard their legislatures with disfayOr, to
eXaggerate their faults and depreciate their
good points. This rte has been applied
to very great extent 20 the Legislature
just adjourned, BOT without considerable
prOvocatiOa in many instances it is true,
but as often perhaps REGARDLESS OF reason
or justification.

East and West sectionaIism .
New York Star.

The influence of the east is used TO
maintain a system of taxation which is
so framed IS to enrich the east ct the ex-
pense of the south and west. II is
hardly to be expected that the great cot
ton and grain stStes should be patient
under taxes so unjust and oppressive.
The feeling which 2 reasonable sense of
wrong engenders has begun TO show
itself against all the things that are asked
for by the east. The west opposes our
methods in finance; It refuses to fortify
our cities, to builc q navy, and even so
small a thing as an addition to our
custom house is denied because the west
ern members will not vote for what New
York asks.

ANGEL OR DEMON.

You call me- an angel of love and of light,
A being of goodness and heavenly fire,
Sent out from Gods kingdom to guide you
Alright
In paths where your spirlt may mount and
aspire.
You say that glow like star on its course,
Like ray from the altar, spark from the
source.
Now list to my answer; let all the world hear 1t
speak unafraid what know to be true:
A pure, faithful love is the creative spirit
That makes women ange g. live bu> in you.
We are bound soul to sOII by life's hottest laws
And If am an angel, why, you are the cause.
AS my ship skins the sea look up from her
Fair, firm at the wheel shines loves beautiful
form;
And shall scorn the barque that slast night
went to wreck,
By the pilot abandoned to darkness and
storm?
My craft was not stauncher; she too had been
lost
Had the wheelman deserted or slept at his post.
laid down the wealth OF my soul at your feet
(Some woman does this for some man every
day).
No desperate creature VINO walks In the street
Has a wiCkeder heart than l might have, l
Had you wantonly misused the treasures you
As so many men with heart riches have done.
This fire from Gods altar. this holy love flame
That burns like sweet incense forever for
you,
Might now be a Wild confederation of shame,
Had you tortured my heart or been base or
untrue.
For angels and devils are cast IN one mould,
Till love guides them upward or downward, 1
hold.
tell you, the women that make fervent wives
And sweet, tender mothers. had fate been
less fair,
Are the women that might have abandoned
their lives
To the m tdness that springs from and ends in
despair.
AS the fire on the hearth, which sheds bright
ness around,
Neglected may level the walls to the ground.
The world makes grave errors in judging these
things,
Great good and great evil are born in one
breast.
Love HONS US and hoofs US. or gives us our
wings,
And the best could be worst, and the worst
could be best.
You msy ehank your own worth for what I
grew to be,
For the demon lurked under the angel in me!

= highly Flatt4ring Comparison.

Children are very sympathetic. There's
one quite young who's got an aunt whom
she loves very dearly, but the child does
not understand every thing. The aunt is
single, out she does not hope to be SO
long, although judging from the child's
remarks the position of wife is likely to
be very trying one. The gentleman
who is the object of fattering interest
has been in the habit of making long and
frequent calls. These calls the Child has
studied with some regard to the aunt she
adores. The last one the child assisted at
ended abruptly.
"Aunty," she said sadly, Switch would
you rather do, talk TO Mr.. Jones or go to
